Home Stay Tour
About This Tour
Step beyond the usual tourist trail and experience a more personal side of Bangladesh. This 3-day journey takes you into the rural landscapes of Madhupur and Tangail, where forests, farms, traditional homes and local communities shape everyday life.
Stay in a traditional mud-house homestay in Madhupur and spend time with the local Mandi community. Learn about traditional cooking, bamboo crafts and weaving, explore the Madhupur Sal Forest, and enjoy locally prepared food.
The journey then continues to Tangail, where you stay at the UBINIG guest house and discover another side of rural Bangladesh. Visit organic farms and a community seed bank, cycle through the countryside, meet teachers and children at a local elementary school, explore a village bazar, and visit the historic Atia Mosque. In the evening, local farmers share traditional folk songs over a locally prepared meal.
This is not a sightseeing tour where you simply pass through villages. It is an opportunity to stay, eat, walk, cycle, learn and share time with rural communities.
